mistertim Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 A pretty interesting take on the Drake equation... http://io9.com/astronomers-publish-study-on-extraterrestrial-zombies-1558369680 While some scientists fritter away their time searching for extraterrestrial life, two astronomers have performed a genuine public service for Earth by calculating the likely number of nearby planets inhabited by the undead.The study—written by Stephen Kane (who divides his time between San Francisco State University and the Center for Global Extinction Pandemic Control) and his colleague, Franck Zelziz (Planetary Defense Institute)—presents a modified Drake Equation, which reveals that there could be more than 2,500 zombie-infested planets within 100 parsecs (326 light years) of our solar system.

Darth Tater Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Would our brains be a compatible diet for these alien zombies? I mean, our zombies only eat human brains, don't they? Also, what happens to the zombies when they run out of a food source? For instance, how long can they live? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Millenium Flacon made the Kessel Run in less than 12 Parsecs. Solo and the Wookie must have passed like 300 zombie planets when they pulled that off. Scary thought.

How would they spread zombiness to their victims if they ate the brain considering that destroying the brain is how you kill zombies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
